Yes. Apparently. The fact that there are good reasons to murder someone but no good reasons to rape someone means that violence can potentially be excusable. Dog raping cannot be.

In a more on topic sort of fashion:

The TMNT game runs on the RIFTS engine, which as we can all readily imagine means that it has huge problems. Also, the animals are nothing like balanced. You get points for reducing your size and spend points to increase your size, so if you're a human sized elephant you can be a bad ass psychic grand master, and if you're a human sized squirrel you'll be lucky if you can talk.

That being said, making characters is a whole lot of fun. Back when I was like 15, making a game system that would do justice to TMNT After the Bomb: Mutants in Orbit was a major life goal of mine. Sometimes I wish I had lived my dreams.

Actually, there's a perfectly good reason to commit rape. It's called consent.

That's why rape accusations are always so complicated and hard to prove; it's essentially the only crime someone might consent to be the victim of.

Yes. That's my point. The idea of sticking your dick in something isn't fundamentally "rape," it's fundamentally "sex" and can be "rape" if in addition it's also BadWrong, like if you take advantage of a person who should be able to make their own decisions but for some reason doesn't.

In no way does this apply.

And Frank, I will make you pay, somehow, someday, for making me go to this length to defend fucking wolves.
